Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the benefit of the wax lubrication?

Wax lubrication reduces friction, making screw insertion easier and faster.

What is a double countersunk head?

A double countersunk head allows the screw to sit flush with the surface, and reduces the likelihood of head shear.

What materials are these screws best suited for?

Timco Solo Wood Screws are best suited for use in timber and man-made boards.

What is the thread length for screws longer than 80mm?

Screws 80mm and longer have a thread length of 70mm.

Should I pre-drill when using these screws?

Pre-drilling is recommended, particularly in hardwoods, to prevent the wood from splitting.

What type of driver bit should I use?

Use a Phillips or Pozi driver bit that matches the screw head.

How should I store these screws?

Store the screws in a dry place to prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Screw head shears off during installation.

Reduce driving torque or pre-drill a pilot hole. Ensure the correct driver bit is used.

Screw doesn't fully countersink.

Ensure the pilot hole is large enough. Apply more pressure during the final drive or use a countersinking tool.

Screw strips the wood.

Use a screw with a coarser thread or pre-drill a pilot hole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Efficient insertion due to wax lubrication.
Secure fixing with high pull-out resistance.

Corrosion resistance from the Zinc & Yellow finish.

Cons

Not suitable for all materials, primarily designed for wood and man-made boards.
May require pre-drilling in harder woods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Choosing the Right Screw: Select the correct screw size based on the thickness of the material and the desired holding power. Ensure the screw is long enough to penetrate the materials sufficiently.
Pre-Drilling: Pre-drilling is recommended, especially in hardwoods, to prevent splitting. Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the screw's core diameter.
Driving the Screw: Use a compatible driver bit (e.g., Phillips or Pozi) to drive the screw straight. Avoid over-tightening.
Compatibility: Compatible with most types of wood and man-made boards. Avoid use in extremely dense or metal materials.
Care: Store screws in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. Wipe off any debris after use.
